International Education and Studies Abroad

The Department of Foreign Languages, Literatures, and Cultures strongly supports, and greatly benefits from, the university's excellent Studies Abroad programs. Minors in modern foreign languages must take 18 credit hours of foreign language courses specified by the department. Students are required to take nine of those in courses taught in the Department of Foreign Languages, Literatures, and Cultures based on the main JMU campus. In other words, a student can only transfer a maximum of nine credits for the minor program from courses taken outside of JMU.
